DUBAI SUMMER TRAVEL GUIDE

Hi guys! Here’s a quick Dubai summer travel guide. I was there on September 2017 and the summer season was slowly shifting to winter. It’s called shoulder/off peak season and almost everything is at its lowest price. The humidity was bearable during our visit. The only downside of visiting during off peak season is that the Miracle Garden’s closed for redecoration and will only open during winter time (November-May). So take note of that if Miracle Garden is on top of your places to visit in Dubai. Overall, our four day trip was beyond amazing and we were able to cover some of the best touristy/non-touristy spots.

Reason to visit during Summer

Off-peak season, visit September – October (Shoulder season), lots of deals! You can find luxury hotels and tours up to 50% off.

Best places to eat

Where to shop

Dubai mall has all the brands you could imagine. Skip the souvenirs in attractions and malls and head over to Spice Souk for the same quality at cheapest price.

Why I would come back

Dubai boasts so many activities and it’s impossible to cover everything during a three day trip. Coming back for skydiving, sunset yacht around palm jumeirah, dining in burj al arab, atlantis the palm, waterparks, beach clubs, and so much more!

Looks stunning. I’ve just had transits till now in the UAE but never made it to one of the cities itself. I wonder if one can go scuba diving or buggy-riding in the dunes there. Maybe i’ll consider a stopover next time i fly to Asia 🙂

Hi Mario! Buggy riding in the dunes is one of the famous activities in Dubai and is usually included in the desert safari package. You can actually do a lot even for just a 12 hour layover in one of the cities in UAE. 🙂

Gorgeous photos ! I have heard so many people saying that they loved visiting Dubai. It’s a city that conjures up images of Vegas-like glitz (minus the gambling and drinking, ha, ha). One thing is for certain – this city is more than a stopover destination ! I would love to get there and get under this city’s skin.

These photos are gorgeous!!! I love the one of you sitting on the window ledge looking down at the city, it gives such a cool perspective of the skyline. Dubai definitely sounds like a great place to travel for a little luxury!

Thank you! Dubai is a great travel destination. So fun to know how the city transformed from a humble fishing settlement to becoming the best of the best in all aspects. Thanks for dropping by Holly! ?

These are beautiful photos. This post is exactly why Dubai has never been on my bucket list. I’m not a shopper, I like culture and good food and I love getting good value for my money. Is there something in Dubai for me too?
